Can rabbits and guinea pigs eat the same food?
No, rabbits and guinea pigs should not eat the same food. While both require high-fibre diets, guinea pig food contains added vitamin C, essential for their health, which rabbits don't need in their diet. Feeding rabbit food to guinea pigs can lead to nutritional deficiencies. Always choose species-specific food to ensure your pets receive the proper nutrients for their well-being.
How much food do rabbits and guinea pigs eat?
Food for guinea pigs and rabbits should be provided in controlled portions. Rabbits typically eat about 1/4 cup of pellets per 6 lbs of body weight daily, plus unlimited hay and fresh vegetables. Guinea pigs need 1/8 cup of pellets daily, unlimited hay, and a cup of fresh vegetables. Both pets should always have access to fresh water. Adjust portions based on their size and activity level.
